Khachapuri with cottage cheese and cheese in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 50 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make khachapuri with cottage cheese and cheese? Prepare the necessary products in advance. Traditional Georgian khachapuri recipes include certain types of cheese (such as Adyghe). But I took the usual, boiled one. You can replace it with Imeretian cheese or mix several varieties: feta cheese and suluguni. The main thing is that the cheese is not hard, otherwise after cooling your khachapuri will also become hard.

2. STEP 2

   

   Combine kefir, egg, salt, sugar, vegetable oil in a bowl and mix until smooth. It will be better if all ingredients are taken at the same temperature, for example, room temperature.

3. STEP 3

   

   Sift all the flour with soda and add it in parts to the kefir mass.

4. STEP 4

   

   Knead a soft elastic dough, adding flour little by little. It should hold its shape well and be slightly sticky. Focus on the consistency of the dough, and not on the volume of flour. Cover the dough with a towel and leave for 10 minutes. You may need a little less or more flour, depending on the consistency of the dough.

5. STEP 5

   

   For the filling, grate the cheese on a coarse grater.

6. STEP 6

   

   Combine grated cheese with cottage cheese and egg and mix until smooth.

7. STEP 7

   

   Divide the rested dough into 5-6 equal parts.

8. STEP 8

   

   Roll each part into a round cake with a diameter no larger than the bottom of the frying pan where they will be fried. Place filling in the center of each tortilla.

9. STEP 9

   

   Pull the edges of the cake towards the center, connect and pinch. Turn the resulting bag over with the pinched side down and roll it out lightly. Then turn the cake over again and roll it out again. You need to roll it out carefully, because... When pressed hard, the filling may tear the dough and come out.

10. STEP 10

    

    Place the flatbread on a preheated frying pan and bake, covered, until golden brown. It is better to take a frying pan with a non-stick coating, then you will not need to grease it. Grease the finished khachapuri with butter.
